Now it's confirmed kira is dead, so everyone can stop hoping he's alive. I'm surprised kirge is still so strong after having a hole blown through his chest. I think we're gonna see urahara finish him off. He may even use his bankai to test their bankai stealing abilities.

Why does it seem like everyone is so stupid this arc? First the captains getting their bankai's taken away.. now this Ichigo seriously should have just killed Kirge instead of messing around with him.

It was explained why Ichigo couldn't kill him.

Anyway, It was nice to learn how things stand in Soul Society. It was also nice to see Kisuke employing his intelligences to explain Blut. Kirge using the puppeteer trick was a surprise, but it's great to see some more tension being built. I can't wait to see how Ichigo escapes the cage and get's to Soul Society, hopefully by tapping into his Hollow abilities. Great chapter.

So we learned more about the Quincy and their powers. Not too shabby. I was just disappointed by Kisuke's stupidity. He's supposed to be a genius, yet he never once thought that Kirge was alive? I'm disappointed to be honest. All that work and now Ichigo is trapped. Soul Society is doomed.

So besides Chad it looks like Orihime took a serious hit and lost a chunk of her body as well and it looks like Kisuke or Nel will be fighting next (or both hopefully). I felt REALLY bad for Rin who was losing it at the beginning of the chapter. Also I swear I thought the Rin was a girl up until I just looked his character up (dat pigtail).

If I'd have to guess who the "savior" will be, I'd wager that it would be Isshin. If this is indeed the last arc, then Isshin's past is going to have to be explained one way or another. It would make sense for him to arrive and use bankai to defeat our good Quincy friend. Then, the fact that the Quincies couldn't absorb either Ichigo or Isshin's bankai would be proof positive that their resistance to the Quincy medallion is due to their unique lineage, which would be a perfect segway for Isshin to finally explain the truth (whatever it may be) to his son. Thoughts?

I don't think Harribel will appear; she was tied up, and it would be too random for her to appear like that. Grimmjow needs to appear though. I really miss his craziness.

Not really. It's true she's looked up, but the people guarding her seem to have left for Soul Society and the Tres Bestias specific came to save her. So it wouldn't be out of the question that in the time Ichigo spent fighting Kirge, they had left and gone to rescue her.

Kubo must give screentime for interesting characters like Isshin, Yoruichi or Urahara.

Kisuke's stupidity in this week's chapter has knocked him off my favorite Bleach characters list. Also, I'm hollering at your comment about Grimmjow. He's been missing since his fight with Ichigo. He actually has a reason to be "useless" unlike Chad who spends more time sprawled on the ground than on his feet.

I'd expect Chad to use his Hollow powers, but I'm afraid the quincies would destroy his arms permanently if he did.

I'm afraid Chad won't be able to do anything with the beating he took. Especially with all those holes on his sides and what not.

The only person I see putting down Kirge completely, is Urahara who seems the least hurt even though an arrow is protruding from his back. I mean... he used to be a captain. You can't count him out that quickly.

Maybe it's time for Kisuke to go bankai, since he took away Kirge's bankai stealing tool.

I really hope so I've been waiting for him to use it for a while now.

I agree with the Chad thing at least he's still standing.. I'm just upset that he looks pretty much like this right now.
